I still can't solve this on ECS A907 desknote with 256MB
SDRAM. I enabled "page files" as advised.
I also found on July 3rd the person who has the same
problem still can't solve this till today and put XPe
aside.
I need to at least see a bootable image working to decide
to purchase the formal release of XPe. Tks for every
advises.
-------------------------------------------------------
when first boot a build XPE image.

Error messagee:
The instruction at "0x035bfea4" referenced memory
at "0x000000a". The memory could not be "written".
-------------------------------------------------------
 
Could you provide us with more info, like:
What phases of XPE statup have passed before error.
How many partitions you have and file system types on
them.

Also could you give us more info from screen with error.
Since info you gave us could be anything.

Regards,
Slobodan
 
yes, thank you.
I have 16 partitions in HDD. 10 is 256MB and 5 is 512MB
and one is 1GB. All FAT. Can't remember the parameters set
when creat these partitions by XP. I tried to build image
on 256MB, 512MB and 1GB but all with the same error
message.

The image file I build is very simple and straight forward
with about 230MB size only. I enabled the page file and
physical memory is 256MB.

When the image first boot up, the scroll bar finished the
first run and stopped with error message in the second run
in the middle of the bar.

The complete error messages are:
tba.exe --- application error
The instruction at "0x035bfea4" referenced memory
at "0x000000a". The memory could not be "written".
Click OK to terminate the program.
----------------------------------------------------

I will try to post the LOG file if necessary. The log file
just shows the components installed, of course some error
lines before the last message.

Tks and once I solved this problem, I will forward to the
guy asked the same question on July 3rd.

I have 16 partitions in HDD.
This must be some kind of a record in partition count :)

Aks few questions and attach FBA log.
1. Are you trying to use EWF?
2. Have you left some unpartitioned space for EWF.
3. How many primary partition do you have?


And one non related:

Why so many partitions?



Best regards,
Slobodan
 
Howard,

You can only have a max of 4 primary partitions on a harddrive. One of those
partitions can be an extended partition and broken into smaller logical
partitions.

I have the same error with one of my images. It only happens after certain
software is installed an the device is rebooted. Weird.

Oh boy,
What is EWF?
No, nothing for EWF.
I creat partition during XP installation but didn't
notice how many primary partition?
Which software you will suggest me to know what partions
I have? Ghost or anything else? Tks!

Howard
 
Sean,
How can I make a restructure of my partitions? Do they
all have to be FAT?
By the way, do you think NT embedded still have
commercial usage? Why?
Will you publish any new book about NT embedded?
I knew NT embedded can install Office but XPe can't, am
I right?
Howard
 
Sean,
Amazon.ca sell your book at $95 where list price is $64.
Walmart sell at $45 but only ship to USA address.
Why Amazon.ca sell at such a higher price than list
price? I'm in Vancouver/Canada.
Can you find a company where we may pay credit card then
download the book directly to save time and delivery cost.
Wish to have your book asap.
Howard

What do you mean by what is EWF (Enhanced Write Filter)?

No, you can use for example NTFS.

Wrong XPE can install Office, as any other Windows XP.
But your license agreement forbid this.

So you can't use XPE with Office.


Best regards,
Slobodan
 
Questions:
1. Can you advise what kind of partitions can XPe be
booted? I think I only have one partition but 16 logical
drive. They can all booted but all with the same error
message.
Click to expand...

There are many different ways, but for easy start.
Create one active primary partition, and format it with NTFS. When you copy
build files to it is should be able to boot.
2. Is EWF a component too? Yes.

What this will affect XPe image build or boot?
Click to expand...
Depends on how you use it. For start leave some unpartitioned space on your
disk.
Can I turn it on/off on a XPe image? Yes.

3. Is "diskpart" in XP or need to buy extra? Where to
download or buy it?
Click to expand...

It is standard part of every Windows XP.
Just type diskpart from command line.



For you to be able to quick deploy and test image do following.
Make:
1. Active Primary partition NTFS 5 GB. (This should accommodate all test
builds).
2. Primary partition NTFS 5+GB (For Windows XP that will be used for network
deployment)
3. Some unpartitioned space for future EWF usage.

Until you make first working build don't create more partitions.

All previous steps you can make during regular Win XP installation.

You will need to add to boot.ini entry to point to your XPE path, and that
is it.
Boot XP use it for copying XPE build to C:\
Reboot and choose XPE.

With little luck you should be able to boot XPE.

Slobodan
 
Howard,

1. I don't specifically understand what you trying to do, but you could use
Diskpart, DiskManager, Partition Magic, Remote Recover to change the
partitioning of your HDD. Drives/partitions can be formatted in NTFS or FAT.

2. NT Embedded will still work in some applications, but XPe offers much
more in capability and hardware support. XPe's embedded features have
improved greatly over NT Embedded. The Write Filter is a good example of
this. There is an article on MSDN comparing XPe and NTe.

3. There are no plans to develop a new book on NT Embedded. The current book
covers all of the major feature and topics for NTe, and community feed back
has not requested it.

4. Office is more of a licensing issue. You will have to ask MS, but I don't
think the Office will be licensed to run on XPe. The installation utilities
check for the OS version and will fail if XP Pro or XP Home are not found.

Based on some of the questions you're asking in the NG, you may want to
think about taking a class on XPe. It could help save you time in the long
run.

Sean,
Thanks a lot, let me try to rebuild my XPe image with new
partitions.
I scheduled for the one in MS yesterday but can't go for
accident. Will plan for the one on December in Vancouver.

Howard,
Sorry but you have the wrong Sean. You are looking for Sean Limming.
